Zusammenfassung:A dump rack for attachment to pickups and other vehicles that is used to haul materials, tools or supplies. The dup rack of this invention has a stationary frame that attaches on the sidewalls of a pickup box or other vehicle. The stationary frame has side members attachable to the top edge of the pickup bed sidewalls and a cross member that fits at and within the front of the bed. A pivoting frame is pivotally attached to the stationary frame. A front end of a dump rack is pivotally attached to the pivoting frame. The rear of the dump frame has rear pivot legs which are pivotally attached to the dump frame and to a rear end of the side members on the stationary frame. A lift mechanism operates on the pivoting frame to pivot the pivoting frame between a lower position and an upper position. As the lift mechanism lifts the front of the pivoting frame, the front of the dump rack is raised and the rear of the dump rack is pivoted rearward and downward. As the dump frame pivots the load carried thereon is dumped.
